It's CD1!!!! IVF has begun

So AF has arrived...and the calls have been made....IVF has begun.

Slight crisis with money...because our funds were in our mortgage offset account...and it take 2 days to get transfered...and we have to pay up front...or no cycle. So a lil bit of stress and some phone calls later...my wonderful sister paid the $5300 for us and we can pay her back on Thursday when our money comes in.

I must admit to being a bit stressed about money...so much going out and not enough coming back in. I almost feel paralyzed with what to do. I am sort of kicking myself for going to the Uk in September....I wish now, in hindisight...we had not done it. However, that said...assuming this works...it would have meant we would not be going for at least another 5 years....argghhh the balance.

So, at the moment...we are looking at ways to scrimp and save so we don't go broke lol. We are used to having a nice buffer in the bank...right now the buffer is gone. So...we'll be getting some stuff onto Ebay...and cutting back in all areas that we can. It's hard...because we don't live it large...we rarely eat out, going to the movies is something we do once every 3 or 4 months, we don't have cable TV, we don't have fancy clothes and i spend very little on new things for Elliott....so i don't even know where to cut back...but we will find somewhere!

Anyway...i am waiting to hear from the nurse so i can really get going. I should be picking up my meds tomorrow...and will have my full schedule this afternoon!
